LIMITS OF SOVEREIGNTY.

There is q point in the question Of the
admission Of Utah into the Union that
brings us to consider a very vital prin-
ciple bearing on our own State politics
The Constitution Of the United States
prescribes no laws relative to marriage
and any State is free to make laws con-
corning marriage and divorce.
But Congress will certainly not admit
a State that may come in with constiiu-
ton prohibiting polygamy, when we
know that, under the plea Of State SOW
ereignty, the people of Utah might
change their laws when it might suit
them, after being admitted to the Union.
The principle Of State sovereignty can
DO anything, except violate the Con
stitution of the United States, which
limits and encloses the State within the
Federal power. When the average
Southerncr sees that the idea Of State
sovereignty is acknowledged, he is apt
10 suppose that it is paramount to every
thing; but the Interpretation of the Fed
eral system since the civil war is that the
State community is sovereign for all
local governmental purposes, so that ii
does not trcspass on the supreme law Of
the land" There was time when
Southerners considered ihat phrase the
catch word of The North TO enforce any
idea opposed to our theory Of States
rights But we have been forced to
recognize the supreme power Of the
National Government, and have solcmnly
agreed to do it,
Before the civil war we proposed to
settle a difference of opinion by arms,
and maintained that the Federal power
" as merely a delegated one held in trust,
to be resumed by any State if she chose.
At present we acknowledge the umpire
TO be the Supreme Court and not war.
There is no appeal according to ouragrce-
mcnt, and whether we ike it or not it
is so.
There Is no argument sopotcnt as fact.
And the fact is that the Constitution of
the United States limits the sovereignty
Of the State so far as 10 keep it from yio-
Iating the rights Of citizens under the
true Democratic-Republican theory of
free citizenship.

crowded. On those days Cappa's great band
plays, but the parks are crowded at other
hours as well The absence Of bicycles IN
some parts Of the parks is noticeable. New
York and Brooklyn, I believe, are the only
large cities which do not allow wheels on all
the drives and walks Of parks.
Riding has become favorite exercise, ana
there are three schools here, each largely
patronized, at which horseback riding Il
taught The English method is tie only one

that this method is the best because 1t Is the
easiest and safest for horse and man. "The
